MacBook keyboard brightness on ANOTHER LEVEL
MacBook keyboard brightness workaround that might improve the quality of your life. Or it might not.

⚠️ If you use F1 or F2 keys in some apps, my config is perhaps not designed for You, but you can choose different keys without a problem.
⚠️ There is a little visual mistake in the video at 1:35. I showed that pressing fn + F1/F2 adjusts the same brightness overlay menu as pressing the F1 and F2 keys alone. Of course, the keyboard brightness overlay menu should be shown using fn + F1/F2. Yikes.
Also "Wan't" is a new word. Don't know what happened there.
I didn’t want to mention this in my video since it’s my first time putting myself out there, but if you’d like to support my channel (since monetizing on UA-cam is a long and challenging journey), here’s where you can do it:

It's my first video, and after watching it, I realized it could have been an email, but I had too much fun doing it, so let's say the additional parts are for entertainment.
Karabiner Elements turned out cool also.
I have some ideas for future videos so maybe stay for a while?

    The spotlight button has got to be the most useless button ever. cmd space is easier to reach and there it a menu bar icon. Not to mention i've never needed to use spotlight

    I don't understand why F3 and F4 on M series Macs aren't for keyboard brightness. Spotlight can be activated with CMD+Space and Mission Control is something which you can do with gestures and isn't really as important as keyboard brightness imo

      And what keys did You choose? I’ll write some stupid obvious things now, which are already in the video, because it’s hard for me to tell what might be the issue since nobody seems to have a similar problem. I know You might have done them already but even though: If You choose the keys I did make sure to press “fn” alongside. Also double check the path and the file name (be sure to use .plist). Maybe You have some different app that is fighting the bind? Like mentioned in the video Karabiner Elements. Those are things that I came up. Check the links in the document (in the description) since those might be more helpful

      12" is a unique machine. Nowadays they also have the space but clearly, we just don't understand the reasoning behind putting the spotlight search and e.g. dictation key 🥴 instead of something actually useful

    Is there a way to do it with ipad keyboard too?

    • @Lucyian_
      @Lucyian_ 6 днів тому

      Hard for me to say since I do not own one and I doubt that the solution shown in the video can be done on an iPad, but my best guess is to spend some time in the shortcut app. This link might somehow help You: www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/g82yif/shortcut_to_change_ipad_magic_keyboard_brightness/ Also if it's possible to create a shortcut that will adjust Your magic keyboard brightness to let's say 50% You can try to set some super simple name to this shortcut like "K50" and then simply trigger it using spotlight search and type this name. Create as many of them as You need e.g. K00, K25, K100.
